    • Air pre-heater

    • Recuperator

    Correct Answer
    A. Heat wheels
    Explanation
    Heat wheels are the most suitable device for a low to medium-temperature waste heat recovery system. Heat wheels, also known as rotary heat exchangers, are designed to transfer heat between two air streams. They are particularly effective in recovering waste heat from exhaust gases or other low-temperature heat sources. Heat wheels consist of a rotating wheel with heat-absorbing material that absorbs heat from one air stream and transfers it to another air stream. This makes them ideal for recovering waste heat and improving energy efficiency in low to medium-temperature applications.

    The exchanger typically used in the pressurizing section of a dairy plant is

    • Plate heat exchanger

    • Shell and tube exchanger

    • Run around coil exchanger

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Plate heat exchanger
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Plate heat exchanger. Plate heat exchangers are commonly used in the pressurizing section of a dairy plant. They are compact, efficient, and provide a large heat transfer area in a small footprint. This makes them ideal for applications where space is limited, such as in a dairy plant. Plate heat exchangers also offer good heat transfer performance and are easy to clean, making them suitable for the processing of dairy products. Shell and tube exchangers and run around coil exchangers may also be used in certain applications, but they are not typically used in the pressurizing section of a dairy plant.

    Which of the following cruise control RADAR & GPS system is used

    • Normal Cruise Control

    • Adaptive Cruise Control

    • Predictive Cruise Control

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Predictive Cruise Control
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Predictive Cruise Control. Predictive Cruise Control is a type of cruise control system that uses RADAR and GPS technology to anticipate and adjust the vehicle's speed based on upcoming road conditions, such as curves, hills, and speed limit changes. This system uses advanced algorithms and data analysis to provide a smooth and efficient driving experience, optimizing fuel efficiency and safety. Both Normal Cruise Control and Adaptive Cruise Control do not incorporate the predictive capabilities of the Predictive Cruise Control system.
